so get a bearing kit...

Router Bit Bearing Kits - Southeast Tool

find a stacked rail and stile set you like... use just the cutters you need...
look to chamfer bits... 30° cutters are to be had...
cut your material flat and you have a 30° chamfer..
cut the material on edge and you'll get a 60°cut...
a bearing set/kit will rescue the day when you least expect it..

Mark did you ever find the sheet plastic you were looking for? I have found that regular old Glad Cling Wrap which has adhesive on one side works well for my veneering, should work for your plastic. It doesn't leave a residue on wood when peeled off.

try and find a sign shop that prints polycarbonate film... ask for their rejects that they will throw out...
stuff has a bazillion uses and is very difficult to wear out...
it may be cheap enough the you can buy some of the film from them and get their rejects...

Great info there, thank you, but if you can find what you are talking about in stock please let me know. I have tried every company that I can find on google and all of them are out of stock or discontinued. To recap with my last order, they actually told me they don't have that be either and cannot get it so they refunded me. So back to a needle in a haystack chase. I might have to get one custom made at $200 or so.

I take it you realize that 33° is a very odd angle...
if you use a 30° chamfer and face cut you get a 30° edge...
if you edge cut 30° you get a 60° face chamfer..

is this what you want???
look to CMT...

chamfer plane w/ an adjustable guide is another posibility...

@Spitfire7...
why is you can't do edge cuts???....
any decent rabbet plane w a guide will work...
make an angle block for it and chamfer away...
if you can use a plane you can edge cut/route...
find a bit that's close and make a sloped table to set what degree you are after...
up grade your table and do away w/ all of the handicaps...

 

[Stick486]

Let me know if that makes sense

all the sense in the world..

have a bit made...
use what is available..
have a ready made bit modified to work w/ what you have...
upgrade/modify your equipment to accommodate...
build or buy a serious router table...

 

[Stick486]

Yeah I might have to go that rout of getting a bit made. I do have a decent table that works great, but might need a second for a permanent 60 degree bit setup. So this thread now comes down to two things.

1. Does this bit exist (Hoping someone knows of it or has one)

2. Who would you recommend for making unique custom bits?

I tried both of those companies to no avail. Shall we conclude that this bit doesn't exist? Neither of those companies make bits. So do you guys know of a company that makes custom bits?

don't know any body else..
